They have nicknames like Stovepipe, Burnt Biscuits, Skillet, Skinny, and Marble Eye. They worked for Presidents of the United States, the greatest players in the world, and the captains of industry. These colorful characters have witnessed every great moment, both private and public, at Augusta National, from Gene Sarazens "shot heard round the world" to Nicklaus winning a record five of his six Masters. Then in 1983, things changed forever when "Tour caddies" were allowed at the Masters for the first time. Memories of a better day live on as Ward Clayton documents a history as compelling as the game itself.
